Hi,

The db script for extra x86_64 is stuck:

$ /arch/db-extra64
error: db generation is already in progress (started by andyrtr)
rm: cannot remove `/srv/tmp/.repolock.extra.x86_64': Operation not permitted

That was started hours ago. Can someone with root power remove the lock file
to fix it?

Fixed it. I'm fixing some oopses I made with the dbscripts now. If
this happens again, let me know - I commented out the chmod crap for
now



I'm not sure if it's part of the oopses, but it seems that the problem is that the script for x86_64 doesn't remove the lock file because it can't find it. Error message on running db-extra64:
error: repo lock doesn't exist... something went terribly wrong!

A /srv/tmp/.repolock.extra.x86_64 lockfile was left with 644 permissions for my user. I removed it manually to not block updates for other users.
